An idea whose time has come?

I'm leaning toward closing this space. If you send me an email at recapgirl@yahoo.com, I'd be happy to send you a link should I decide to re-open or relocate!

Nothing's official yet, just pondering.

Thoughts?

Thanks,
Sandra

A few more weeks...

...'til I'm back on the hcg. Sigh. Sigh again. I need to do it, though. As of today, I'm making a more concerted effort to eat scarb free (with a couple of meals off per week for special things). I have gained some back--quel surprise! It was the travel that did it. Mostly. I've been so busy I haven't had the time or energy that I usually have to devote to managing a high maintenance diet. That, and I LIKE eating scarbs. Like anything else, the longer you do it, the harder it is to stop doing it.

But, obviously I don't want to lose the same pounds (for the nine millionth time)again...especially the ones I lost last hcg cycle. So let's hope this month the scale number drifts back down toward my LIW. That's the goal, anyhow.

Well, I had a big weekend. I preached my first sermon--at church, that is. I preach all the time, unofficially. ;) I'd say it went well, especially for a first time. I was flattered to be asked. I have a really nice church and people were so kind. I got tons of hugs and handshakes, so I take that as it went well.

It was Labor Day Sunday, so the audience was pretty small, and some people I really hoped would come didn't. But, again, like everything else, it's the best play to focus on the people who DID come. Not always easy, though. Afterwards Mark and Anna took me out to lunch, so that was fun. And it's a relief to have it done. Time to put that bit of focus (I'm a good prepare-er) onto other things, like....

School starts for Mark tomorrow. Anna and I start in earnest next week. This week we're gearing up and taking care of some last minute things. Next week is "Review and Preview Week" for us. It's better to start a little slowly, as it's a big thing! The week after we start both her external classes (dance, writing, music) and our homeschool classes full time. So I figure ramping up to it can only be good.

Hmmmm. I feel tired just thinking about it.
